Abstract

The basic toxic component of the neurotoxic complex from the venom of the Bulgarian viper ( Vipera ammodytes ammodytes) possessed phospholipase A 2 activity (EC 3.1.1.4) and the acidic component partially inhibited the enzymatic activity of the basic component. The partial amino acid sequence at the N- and C-terminus of the toxic phospholipase A 2 was compared with the sequence of several phospholipases and neurotoxins with weak phospholipase activity.
